Which PHP version are you using? This sounds like you are using a PHP version < 5.4 (see plugin home page).

Have you configured OAuth authentication on the settings page? Are your photos public or private?

If you have not configured the Google authentication using OAuth you’ll only see pictures that you made publicly available (for example the profile photo), but not private ones.

To access those pictures with this plugin, you’ll have to perform the Google OAuth configuration on the settings page.

Greetings,
Thorsten

Currently there is no such option. I created an issue for this. Please have a look at https://github.com/thake/photo-express/issues/5. Feel free to add additional feature requests ??

By default caching is enabled for albums. The cache for the albums within a post should be cleared every time you change the post.

If you do not want to have caching, you can disable it in the settings section. But depending on the number of albums in a post, this can seriously decrease performance.

You can have a look at pedaltheplanet.de.

Can you give it a try with the most current version on github? I fixed it there, but can’t verify if it works locally.

You can download it here.

Thanks!

Hey,

thank you very much for this detailed bug report. You are absolutely right, I forgot to include jQuery explicitly. I didn’t notice this issue, as I only tested it with jQuery based themes.

I’m working on a fix.

You specified your client ID wrong. From the url that you posted and the error you got, I can see that you had a space in front of your client_id. The error “Error: invalid_client” also indicates that you specified an invalid client ID. Change it in the settings and it should work fine (watch out for whitespaces!)

This is really strange. The error message indicates that you are running a PHP version that does not support namespaces. If you’re running PHP 5.4 this should not be the case. I just had a short chat with hostgator, to check if there is a way for developers to check out plugin compability with their platform, but they do not have any free way of doing this.

Can you provide me with a login so that I can try it for myself? Otherwise it is hard for me to investigate further.

I’m sorry to disappoint you. Although it was included in the predecessor of this plugin, it is not included anymore. This is because the implementation of this functionality never really worked in the predecessor so I decided to remove this functionality from the code to reduce complexity.

If you really need it, you can get into contact with me and sponsor this feature.

Thank you very much for the feedback. I just set up a configuration running WP 4.3 and PHP 5.4.44 and I could activate the current version (0.3.2) without any problem.

Can you give me a few more information on your environment? Which exact version of Photo Express for Google have you tried? What is the exact version of your PHP (Best way to determine is running phpinfo()). Has any previous version of Photo Express for Google worked in your environment?

What do you mean with “Icon doensn’t show”? Which icon? Where does it not show up?

Hi Skyli,

thanks for your feedback.

I did a little bit of investigation in this issue and here are my findings:

1. Google does not allow more then 1000 pictures within one API query, so albums with more than 1000 pictures will be capped to 1000 pictures. You’ll have to create a special album in google photos if you want to select pictures that are older than your most recent 1000 pictures in your auto backup folder.
2. Your issue with photos missing from the 20-21-23 August and the missing new album seems to be related to a caching issue that I’ve now fixed with release 0.3.2. Can you give this version another try and check if you can now see the missing pictures?

I hope this helps a little bit.

Thanks for your fast feedback.

Seems like I had another bug in there … released version 0.3.2 to fix this. Hopefully this time for real. Can you give it a try?
